What is the Best Food on the Planet? 18 Travel Bloggers Answer- RTW Food Photo Carnival

An ode to food. We are here to celebrate the most colorful, flirtatious palette-pleasing delights on the globe. We adore food. What makes it memorable? The people you were with, the quality of the spices and raw materials used to make it, or your state of mind as you took that first bite? I’ve ask some of the coolest travel bloggers in the world to join me for this wonderful food celebration. Below you will find the absolute best food in the world from the succulent experiences of 18 travel bloggers. Yeah, Food Porn! I know!

Sometimes, life is just that sweet. It’s a tough call, impossible actually, but we tried, really hard, and each of us have presented you with one photograph and just one link to a post about our favorite, most awesome mouth-watering treat.

God, I’m so hungry right now. Dear God! We’re going to a BBQ to celebrate the graduation of Manny as an official PADI Dive Master with Savedra Dive Center tonight! And still, right now, I’m dying to eat. This post does not make my life any easier. Except for the big head (thank you Val) and things that look too recognizable or that have eyes that stare back at me when I crunch into them, the rest of this stuff is killing me right now!

So, eighteen experienced world travelers have spoken. If you like this collection, share it loves, go, now, be off with you, share, share, share, and then, share some more. You know you love food porn. Admit it. This article was that good. 🙂 So, go share it!

If you’ve written a post or want to tell us the absolute best thing you’ve eaten on the planet, please leave your link or food description in the comments. We’d love for you to join in our next photo carnival as well. In July, we’re doing Scariest Moment on the Road. You simply email me at gabiklaf@gmail.com with the subject line: Scariest Moment. Send me a 600x 450 photo and a link to a post you wrote about it and you’re in. I take entries up until the July 20th and will publish at the end of the month.

You can.

hi noel. yes, they are truly evil before a meal. they are. carnivals go up the end of each month. you simply send me an email with a photo 600 x 450, a link to a post on the topic and your url and you’re in. if you want to play here are the next three coming up. simply email with the subject line being the topic of the carnival:

june- best food in the world
july- scariest moment on the road
august- most amazing act of kindness on the road
september- that one mistake i made

Okay, some of this made me drool and others were YUK! I would have to go for the stuffed mushrooms myself, not too much into seafood or creepy crawly things. This is great, I just love the variety of perspectives.

so hard to pick, right? i’m starving and doing a 6 day raw food cleansing so this post is not doing me well right about now. oh, sounds amazing, if you have a link to a post about it, please send it along. gabi

yes laurel. i’m totally with you. food is it. i always say when things go wrong, “I’m only here for the food!” Kirstie’s angle was special, as was Adam’s choice of Za’atar, a spice! Your photo fits in snugly. Thank you for joining in the carnival. I’m so lucky to have such great new blogs introduced to me through this. Gabi

These all look so good, Gabi! Nothing inspires me to travel more than food so South East Asia and the Middle East (I share Adam’s love of za’tar!) are at the top of my list. Thanks for including me in this great lineup!

you are so right cassie. the food is unreal. many of my fondest memories after people, of course, is the food. i love middle eastern food, and miss it dearly. thanks for joining in for this project. you food looks unreal! gabi

Some of this looks great, but I have to say that some I would definitely not be able to stomach. I think it’s all relative when it comes to how good the food is. We have just had some toast with Irish cheddar and Marmite on, it tasted so good, because we have been without it for so long, but would be quite regular back home and we wouldn’t think it was anything special.

andrew, i totally agree. i think state of mind is a huge one in terms of how deeply the food experience gets imprinted in your memory. totally! most of my best meals were around who we were with and what was going on with us emotionally, but, i must say, some were just so delish that all hell could have been breaking loss and we’d still die from how good the food porn was! thanks for stopping by again and again friend.

sandra dearest. thank you for sharing. i think when you put it here, others can see what other amazing foods are out there. sweet tooth. dear god, i go weak at the knees. thank you for sharing again sandra. gabi

i love you alyson and your food thoughts. did you ever get the pecan pies near backhome? they were sinful. and the hummingbird cake? you love featuring you. wasn’t the indian food in kl so cheap and amazing? loved it.

These are all great! It made me think of all the tasty, weird and amazing food I have had during my years of traveling. I make it my mission to try as many local dishes as I can when I visit a new place.
